The match initially saw a lackluster first half, but the action picked up in the 56th minute when the Czechs took the lead. Captain Tomas Soucek initiated the play, dribbling into the box before laying off a precise pass to Vaclav Cerny. Cerny, with a left-footed shot, found the back of the net, and despite a VAR check for offside, the goal stood.


The home team continued to apply pressure, seeking to extend their advantage. However, Albania clawed their way back into the contest just ten minutes later. Nedim Bajrami seized the opportunity when Alex Kral lost possession just outside the penalty area. Bajrami unleashed a powerful shot into the top corner of the net, leveling the score.


This result left the Czech Republic leading Group E with 8 points, closely followed by Albania with 7 points. In other Group E action on Thursday, Poland secured a 2-0 victory over the Faroe Islands, allowing them to climb into third place with a total of six points.
